Home and Away: Mexico looking to spice things up in Group D

Larje-Angereds have stormed to the top of the Swedish Second Division

Jonno Turner takes us to Sweden and Turkey for his two tips today...

We're taking a trip to Sweden for our first pick of the day - and Division Two, as Larje-Angereds travel to Lindome, looking to extend their lead at the top of the table.

The visitors have been in impressive form so far this campaign, and are unbeaten in their opening 11 outings of the season - having won seven and drawn four.

And the Blasebovallen side's dominance is underlined by the fact that they have shipped just seven goals so far, with four consecutive clean sheets indicating that their defence has played a key part in their rise to pole position.

The Gothenburg side are in good form on the road, and have not lost in six outings away from their own patch - with five wins during that time standing them in good stead to take maximum points from this clash.

Hosts Lindome line up for this clash sitting seventh in the table, following a mixed start to the new campaign.

Just three wins from eight outings will have knocked confidence down at the Lindevi IP, and, although Conny Winge's side are on a decent run of results at home, winning seven on the bounce - they have conceded in all but one of those games, and I reckon that the visitors are likely to be presented with a chance or two here.

Larje-Angereds have won the last two meetings between these sides - smashing eight goals in the process, and conceding just two. I fancy them to secure another victory here.

Bet 1: Larje-Angereds (AWAY) @ 1.82

Over to Turkey now for our final selection of the day - and it's a South American affair in the U20 World Cup, as Mexico take on Paraguay in Gaziantep.

The Mexicans are in formidable form ahead of this clash, and have won eight of their last nine outings going into this encounter - securing five clean sheets from their last seven.

And boss Sergio Almaguer will be keen for his side to bounce back from an opening day defeat to Greece in this tournament - and this game provides the perfect opportunity to do so, against a side which has won just two from six outside of their home country.

Paraguay have won just two of their last five ahead of this game, and are certainly low on momentum as they aim to secure their place in the knockout stages of this tournament.

A win is a must for both of these sides if they are to keep their dreams of qualification from Group D alive, but just two clean sheets from 12 for Victor Genes' side suggests that they have weaknesses at the back which could cost them dearly here.

I reckon this one will be a tight affair - but Mexico are good value to take all three points, given the form they have schown recently in the lead up to this competition.

Bet 2: Mexico U20 (HOME) @ 2.02
